The organic flour, yeast and water sourdough mixture is left for a minimum of 20 hours to prove before being baked in a wood burning brick oven from Naples. The result is excellent pizza, right to the crust. There are just six options - a short but tasty choice of various fresh ingredients from wild mushrooms to cured chorizo, all at a very reasonable price around the five pound mark.
